Dhe cocktail men’s table setting has gone out of fashion. For example, the combination of a bottle of Pils and 0.2 liters of dry or semi-dry sparkling wine that used to be offered in Hamburg’s red-light district, which was the obligatory minimum consumption in bars around the Reeperbahn in the 1970s with free admission. If there were any place nowadays where this mix should be on the menu again, then it would undoubtedly be the Kupferberg restaurant in Mainz, which opened on Tuesday and is intended to bring a breath of fresh air to an old building from now on. The cocktail is not yet available even there.
Nowhere else in the city have hops and vines been so closely interwoven for centuries as on the hill belonging to the Kästrich district, barely ten minutes away from Schillerplatz, from which the Romans are said to have looked up and over the Rhine 2000 years ago . Christian Adalbert Kupferberg had used the former vineyard from 1850 onwards to build the deepest sparkling wine cellar in the world in Mainz – all in all 60 vaulted cellars on seven floors – and on top of that to have his “Fabrication sparkling wines” built. Just a stone’s throw away, the Mainzer Aktien beer brewery has shaped the image of the quarter above Emmerich-Josef-Strasse, also since the mid-19th century.
